Matariki Challenge

L.I to explain what is Matariki and why we celebrate it


 
For our second Matariki challenge we drew three birds that were a part of the Mttariki for example if they were eaten withe the harvest or had some part to play in it, we gave each birds a description about where they are native to and what they eat. The birds we drew were Common myna Kereru and Tui.
